TRANSCRIPT
Mumbai: Global private equity majorBlackstone Group is in advanced talkswith Ranbaxy’s Singh brothers and Dhil-lon family to acquire their real estateportfolio spread over 1million sq ft officeproperties for over .̀ 1,000 crore, said twopersons familiar with the development.
The portfolio includes total six commer-cial buildings across four key cities, in-cluding Mumbai, Delhi, Noida and Ah-medabad. Singh brothers are also develo-ping a large 1 million sq ft office complexin Gurgaon, but this project may not bepart of the proposed transaction.
“The deal is likely to be concluded in fewweeks from now as the due diligence,which is in advanced stage, is expected toclose any time soon. Given their recent li-quidity issues, the proposed deal is ex-pected to provide much-needed relief tothe Singh brothers,” said one of the per-sons mentioned above.
Blackstone is acquiring these assets onits own and not through any of its exis-ting joint investment platforms with In-
dian real estate developers. The NewYork-headquartered private equity firmis negotiating the deal directly withSingh brothers and Dhillon family.
Out of these assets, the commercial pro-perty spread over 2.50 lakh sq ft at Saket
in New Delhi is expected to fetch maxi-mum valuation given the size, locationand marquee tenants. Law firm CyrilAmarchand Mangaldas, IIFL Wealth andretailer H&M are some of the occupiersin this prime property.
A total of 3 office buildings in Noida arespread over around 4.5 lakh sq ft, and are70% fully leased. Commercial propertyspread over nearly 1lakh sq ft in Mumba-i’s Vile Parle suburb is also fully occupi-ed, while the property in Ahmedabad isrelatively smaller in size.
Blackstone declined to comment on thestory, while an email sent to RHC Holding,owned by Malvinder Mohan Singh andShivinder Mohan Singh, remained unans-wered till the time of going to press.
Over the past few years, Blackstone hasemerged as the most aggressive institu-tional investor in India’s real estate sec-tor, picking up properties across majorcities in deals that are turning out to bebenchmarks in the sector. The firm ownsIndia’s biggest portfolio of income-pro-ducing office assets, totaling over 110 mil-lion sq ft across key property markets ofMumbai, Noida, Pune and Bengaluru.

Companies: Pursuit of Profit
New Delhi: You will now not be chargedat higher tax rate for your hotel stay withthe Goods and Services Tax Council fi-nally accepting ‘transaction value’ fordetermination of leviable tax rate.
Hotel industry had lobbied hard forthis change since the GST roll out in Julylast year.
Use of ‘declared tariff ’ for determina-tion of tax rate meant that customers had
to cough up tax at higher rate even if roomtariff charged fell in lower slab. There arethree slabs for hotels — 12, 18 and 28%.
The centre and the states have notifiedthe change replacing ‘declared tariff ’with ‘value of supply’ which is equiva-lent to transaction value.
However, experts are flummoxed at thechange being restricted to room tariffsand not extended to restaurants insidehotels.
Hotels face three rate slabs — first oneis for .̀ 1,000 and .̀ 2,500 per day room tariff
at 12% with input tax credit; second is forthose having per day room tariff above.̀ 2,500 but less than .̀ 7,500 at 18% with in-put tax credit; third is for five stars andthose with room tariffs above .̀ 7,700 at28% with input tax credit.
Under the previous regime one had to payGST at the rate of 28% if the declared tariffof the room was more than .̀ 7,500 even if hehad paid less as usually final room tariffsare lower on account of discounts.
The latest change has corrected this si-tuation.
GST Council Accepts ‘Transaction Value’ to Tax Hotel Tariff
